Now accepting new clients in Houston, Texas!
Who we work best with:
-
You’ve always felt a little out of place
-
You’re unpacking identity, family trauma, or religious harm
-
You’re tired of explaining racism or microaggressions to your therapist
-
You’ve been told you’re “intense” or “too sensitive”
-
You want therapy that feels real — not clinical and cold
What you can expect here:
-
Anti-racist, anti-oppressive framework
-
LGBTQIA+ affirming care
-
Neurodivergence-affirming therapy (not behavior-policing)
-
Respect for cultural context and lived experience
-
Space for complexity, anger, grief, joy, and weirdness
If you’ve ever felt like you don’t quite fit — in your family, your culture, your workplace, or even in traditional therapy — you’re in the right place.
I work with BIPOC clients, queer folks, neurodivergent minds, and anyone who’s been called “too much,” “too sensitive,” or “too different.”
You don’t need to tone yourself down here. You don’t need to translate your identity. You don’t need to explain why you exist.

We offer reduced-fee sessions with a graduate clinician - immediate openings.

We help people build a more compassionate, honest relationship with themselves—especially when anxiety, self-doubt, or past experiences make that difficult.
Therapy in Houston, TX for Anxiety, Trauma, and Life Transitions — Including Affordable Counseling Options
Kathleen Smith, MA, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor
Hey! I specialize in supporting people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and relational issues, who are ready to heal from trauma, offering a deeply trauma-informed and compassionate approach. I love walking alongside my clients on their journeys—especially the weirdos and oddballs—creating a space where authenticity is not just welcomed, but celebrated. Together, we'll cultivate deeper self-knowledge and a sense of self-mastery that'll have you moving through life with more clarity, confidence, and ease.
Sarah Scherzer
Graduate-level Clinician
Hi! I’m a graduate student in Northwestern University’s Clinical Mental Health Counseling program specializing in children and adolescents. My clinical interests are in relational dynamics, identity development, and supporting clients through life transitions. I take a direct, honest approach in therapy and use thoughtful confrontation to help you build insight, accountability, and meaningful change. My goal is to create a supportive space where you can better understand yourself, navigate challenges, and move forward with greater self-awareness and intention.
